I wouldn't normally post work that wasn't mine or by someone I didn't know, but I came across these cool images rendered as sprites for a pirate village area of a German RPG game called "Sacred: Underworld" (never heard of it or seen it). The artist's attention to detail is phenomenal.

Saw a review on a new online game at there.com. The starting point has Tiki huts where you can change your online look. http://www.herroflomjapan.com/ has a short movie and a podcast if anyone has a videopod. I haven't joined it yet cause i'm on my dial up at work but I'll check it out when I get home. Could be cool place for us to all meet.

Cheeky Half Jr. spends too much time playing 'World of Warcraft', or 'WoW' as the kids call it. Mr. Cheeky casually (and sarcastically) throws him the comment "I don't suppose there are any Tikis in that game of yours, Son?"

The second area in City of Villains has a mission where you have to fight a bunch of snake guys in a tiki theme Casino. Wish I wouldn't have canceled my account, otherwise I would get a few screen grabs.

The game Tradewinds 2 has a superweapon called a "Tiki Bomb". It is supposed to inflict heavy damage on enemy ships. One wonders if it is a flaming drink from the Bahooka, which is strong enough to inflict major damage on the unsuspecting.

I do see a mention to World of Warcraft. What is intersting is that the character posted is one of the horde Undead. If you want to look at a more tiki/island character, that would be the trolls and many of their villages. I will have to post screenshots later.

In this game you actually fight (what I assume to be) tiki-men with sunglasses on balloons. Hey the game was made for kids. There are also platform blocks in the game that look to be tiki sticking their tongues out (or could be Maori sticking their tongues out it is kinda hard to tell). The video link above shows the game and the blocks mentioned (round 2). Anyways you can find the game out for the PS2 called Taito Legends.
